Hector, Phil, and Little Joe will be happy to know that I got a ZETEC!!!

I couldn't sleep thinking, "WTF!!"

I took the Corwn Vic back and said, "I want anohter car, and with the rebates, special financing, and all I got a 2002 ZX5 with everything I want and ESP for same payments as my Contour!

Also, when they reworked the deal, I got more $$$ as a trade in, since I was trading UP!

It's Navy blue like Kevins and has 16" rims, runs great, and was a demo so I saved even more $$$. It's broken in already, so it feels faster than a brand new one I test drove.

Focaljet, here I come!

Other issues I had with Greenie:

1. The driver door rattled and body shop claimed it would be fixed my yesterday. When I called 2nd time to remind them guy was like "We'll call u!" 'FO' I say.

2. Alignment was off for 2nd time in less than a year.

3. It was pinging again, once in while.

4. I really didn't want to bother with the water pump and DMD and all that.

5. I would have never been able to sell for retail price. Most of CEG knew of crash and who would buy it

Good selection Tom. One word of advice though if you go to focaljet, don't ask questions that have already been asked before. They are dicks. Ask noresull!! In the Team Tech section. He is the nicest guy on the board. Good luck with the focus!!!

Hey Tom I think this would classify you as a car dealer or close to it. According to the laws in Illinois. If you sell more then 3 cars in a year, then your considered a dealer. That was the law last time I knew because of my old neibor.


Cars: 95 Monte Carlo, No Mods RIP: 88 Civic, Intake DIED TO A BENZ Sold: 82 Buick Electra, AKA: Love Machine 2RF HE's w/ Pioneer DEH-P6300 All of which will be in the Monte at the begining of next month.

I'm sooooo glad the dealr was cool with putting me in a new car!

It handles great, is solid like a rock, and the car has more features, like remote key fob, that I wanted real bad! The stereo in it makes my old one sound like an AM radio.
